1.I am the Lord your God, You shall have no other gods before me.

As an atheist, I think I default to not having broken this one.

2.You shall not make any graven images of God.

Yeah, not doing that either.

3.You shall not use the Lord your God's Name in vain.

Again, not really doing that one either.

4.Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it Holy.

Bruh, I would rest every day of the week if I could. Resting for one day each week? Easy to follow that one.

5.Honour your father and mother.

Does it really have to be both? What if one is just a shitty parent?

6.You shall not kill.

Have not killed

7.You shall not commit adultery.

Had to look this up to make sure I understood the biblical definition. Have not done that either.

8.You shall not steal.

Okay, I'll have to plea the 5th on this one.

9.You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor

Haven't done this either. I find that shitty people will probably live shitty lives. No need for me to make things up when their own actions will be what ruins them.

10.You shall not covet.

Took out a 15 year mortgage back in 2012. Only thing I'm coveting are those less than 3% rates back from 2020 before the price of housing blew up. Not too jelly about it though as people who bought in 2021 with less than a 3% rate are still paying more than me because the price of the houses themselves skyrocketed in my area.

So just half of 5 and 8 for me.

Well, I haven't killed anyone.

For adultery, do I have to be the cheater or does it count if I was the "other guy"?

Either way, my answer is 8-9

From what I could tell when looking it up, it doesn't seem to matter. If you or the other person was married or betrothed, it would be adultery.

Those aren't the 10 Commandments, heathen.

An Inquisition must be called to hold an auto-da-f on you!!!

THESE are the only right and true commandments.

1) I am the Lord thy god, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
2) Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
3) Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.
4) Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
5) Honor thy father and thy mother.
6) Thou shalt not murder.
7) Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8) Thou shalt not steal.
9) Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
10) Thou shalt not covet anything that belongs to thy neighbor.

Lots of people have broken 4 by virtue of daring to work on Sunday because they perform essential public services.

When I was a mail sorter I started my Monday morning night shift at 11:30pm Sunday so technically that counts...

Not if they get a different day off. The Sabbath isn't defined as a specific day of the week. As far as I could tell, the only requirement for this is that you dedicate 1 day out of 7 to resting. More specifically, it seems like you're not allowed to work more than 6 consecutive days.

Never murdered anyone. I've never cheated on a partner but if biblical adultery includes sleeping with someone who is, then I'm guilty of that one.

1.I am the Lord your God, You shall have no other gods before me.
Agnostic/atheist

3.You shall not use the Lord your God's Name in vain.
Goddamn(it) is one of my most used words.

4.Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it Holy.
Nope

5.Honour your father and mother.
Love my parents, but haven't always been obedient. Gone through very depressive moments where I hated my own existence and cursed them for it before too.

8.You shall not steal.
Shoplifted a couple of times as a kid/teen, but generally don't steal.

9.You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor
I've lied and will again.

10.You shall not covet.
Definitely wanted things of others including a neighbor's wife. Never acted on any of it though.
